The car is equipped with power steering, twin exhaust finishers, 14-inch steel wheels with body-colored hubcaps and Michelin tires. Chrome exterior trim and classic VDO instrumentation complement its period-correct presentation, along with a Blaupunkt radio, convertible soft top, and a jack and spare tire.Inside, the cabin maintains a simple and functional layout with low-back bucket seats, a two-spoke steering wheel with horn ring, analog clock, door pockets, and a center console. A fender-mounted antenna completes the exterior details, reflecting the straightforward design approach of the era.A key detail about the Mercedes-Benz 230SL is that it uses Bosch mechanical fuel injection on its 2.3-liter inline-six, which was relatively advanced for its time and helped provide more precise fuel delivery than carbureted systems commonly used in many competing sports cars of the mid-1960s. This contributed to smoother drivability and more consistent performance across different driving conditions. This Mercedes-Benz 230SL remains a timeless example of the W113 series, known for its blend of refined engineering and open-top touring capability. This 230SL is mechanically sound. For $46,500
